Hi, I DO agree with what you say here. Dualistic thinking begins with
self/other.

Hi!
Sorry have to add this because dualism also keeps coming up:
BUT, the true teachings of Christ - was not dualistic - it was about ONENESS -
the oneness with God - Jesus, Holy Spirit, God - three in one - becoming three
in one - you and me - me/you, spirit and God - three in one! The true
teachings brings us to ONE not to two - actually there is no two - there is
THREE - Mind, Body, Spirit - and Trinity! Jesus was trying to teach that we
become ONE with God and The Holy Spirit - it's not me and them (self/other)
It's them with me - me with them! A relationship of unity! Jesus become ONE
with them(God/spirit) as we can - Christians believe that God made him the
light to show us this - the REVELATION of God - God revealing how we become
one with the universe as humans - Jesus came as a human to show us this!
Because God also calls US his children - Jesus was his son as I am his
daughter - when I mirror him in the Trinity and believe in his son (his
image!) We were created in his image and he reveals himself in his own good
time - Now it is up to us to see that!
Three as one: God/Jesus/Holy Spirit - Trinity
One in three: Mind/Body/Spirit - Human
One Trinity with One human: Godhead/Christnature/Divine Spirit
We can all achieve this!
A divine relationship - no superiorty complexes - Just a loving divine
relationship with the creator of the universe and the spirit of that creatior
and the light who brought that message - it is true!
The dualisms is merely opposites - Right/Wrong, Good/Bad, Ying/Yan, Rest/Work,
Happy/Sad, Up/Down, In/Out -
Oh, by the way - the Brain is also 3 - not dualistic in structure! So,
therefore, if we were using our entire brain (and it has been proven that most
of us do not!) - the dualism you are referrring to does become just a matter
of opposites not a way of thinking about the whole or spirituality! The whole
picture is a mosaic - and magnetic opposites pull us one way or the other!
The way the Earth works - magnetism! Now if Good is trying to pull us to our
senses - let's hope we still have them!
Peace!

Peace!
